Joseph Ayesu is a music student at the University Of Education.
He belongs to the performing arts branch of arts. Specifically the music and dance field.
He plays a few instruments, but his primary instrument is the piano (keyboard).
He is into traditional dance. He is an instrumentalist at church and once in a while, teaches children dance.
His challenge is that in the field of music, he has realized parents would love to have their children play an instrument but only a few appreciate that it comes at a cost. This he identifies as a demeaning factor when it comes to motivating the various artists involved in the pedagogical process.
Joseph believes monetizing the arts is an issue of association rather than individuals. Associations can start from various communities, organizing the creative minds in the area to teach and groom more people in order to be able to connect with people living in other areas through programs, productions, concerts and so on. Nonetheless he thinks working as individuals is good, but he believes we will go far, when we work in bigger groups. The unity within the groups could help us come out with policies in monetizing our creative pieces and works.
